The safe world of the Pale is under threat.

Inside the policosmos, the new Regent Adaeze strives for dominance over the all-powerful Senior Forecaster, but the Pale’s humachine citizens are unaware that their city is close to collapse.

Outside on Broad Plain, the exiled human Hector undertakes a dangerous trek to find a safe haven for the orphaned twins. 

How can anyone survive as their world shifts underneath them?

Praise for Clare Rhoden
Praise for Clare Rhoden ‘A gripping tale of resilience, survival, and how we define the ‘other’—this is intelligent SF that speaks to our time.’ —Jennifer Mills, author of Dyschronia and fiction editor at Overland ‘The sign of good speculative fiction is that you can not only read it for the page-turning story and characters you will come to love and loathe, but also for the way it makes you think about issues relevant to your own world. Clare Rhoden captures both aspects excellently with this great read about a post-apocalyptic world and the four communities within it.’ —Writer’s Epiphany, sss UK review ‘A world of biomachines, talking and civilized canines, ferals and complicated futuristic technologies … that captivated me from the start.’ —Katie Mineeff, Reading Time, CBCA ‘The Pale could be regarded as hybrid fiction as it embodies dystopic elements, but also traverses the boundaries of animal adventure stories as the canini packs are never far from the action. Rhoden’s style is literary, with rich vocabulary laced throughout her prose, however, the story is accessible to a broad audience … This is an auspicious debut from Rhoden in the popular fiction stakes.’ —Anne M Gamble, sss UK review
